Zapata Rojas, Diana Maribel (2019-04-10)Over the last two centuries, changes in land use and management from agricultural activities have impacted environmental quality and soil productivity. Although soils store substantial amounts of carbon (C) (second largest ...
-
Anderson II, Steven Langlie (2019-07-18)Unmanned aerial system (UAS) technologies are becoming common place within field-based agriculture programs allowing breeders to evaluate greater numbers of genotypes, reducing resource inputs and maintaining unbiased data ...
-
Bain, Nicolas Hunter (2019-04-25)Agriculture is a major consumer of freshwater resources around the world. This especially true in Texas, where water withdrawal for agriculture purposes causes the continuous decline of local aquifers. To minimize the ...
-
Raman, Rahul (2023-04-12)Remote sensing tools such as unmanned aerial systems (UAS) can screen thousands of genotypes in a short time, thus accelerating the selection process for crop improvement. An experiment was conducted at College Station and ...
-
Attia Mohamed, Ahmed (2014-12-17)A significant portion of the intensively cultivated agricultural areas in the U.S. is located in the Texas High Plains and Rolling Plains. In recent years, decreasing ground water supplies and precipitation variability are ...

Plant Population Dynamics in Cotton and Remote Sensing Applications in Cotton Irrigation Management Sapkota, Bala Ram (2022-04-22)The increasing cost of quality cotton seeds, rapidly depleting aquifers used for irrigation, and increasing droughts and extreme weather are making cotton production more expensive and unpredictable in the Texas Rolling ...
-
Da Ros Carvalho, Henrique (2015-08-03)Water deficit is a major limitation for cotton yield in drought-prone Texas croplands. Where underground or surface water is available and cost affordable, water is applied to crops using a variety of irrigation techniques ...
-
Bibi, Salma (2017-07-11)Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is an important crop grown for both fodder and food, especially in Africa and Asia. Although it can cope with water shortage, long-term stress affects sorghum growth and productivity. ...
-
Shrestha, Rajan (2022-04-01)Guar [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub] is a legume grown worldwide with low production inputs and costs, tolerant of hot, dry, and saline conditions, with the potential to provide several ecosystem services. Guar production ...
-
Bruton, Richard Kyle (2020-01-08)There will be a large increase in the world’s population over the coming decades, which will require a significant increase in global food production. However, a large gap exists between the cultivars we plant today and ...
-
Hinson, Philip O (2021-12-10)The Southern Great Plains (SGP) region of the U.S. is widely known for its dryland dual-purpose winter wheat cropping systems—integrated systems that provides both livestock grazing and grain production. Few of these systems ...
-
Bhattarai, Kisman (2023-05-08)Several studies have found higher N demand and uptake in maize (Zea Mays) at grain-filling (reproductive stage). This indicates that delaying split N application until R1 (silking) could benefit overall maize agronomic ...
-
Siegfried, Jeffrey Alan (2021-08-18)Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) allow collection of imagery with unprecedented temporal, spatial, and spectral resolutions suitable for specialized purposes. Crop yield data is critical both for precision agriculture management ...
